The Khamasin journal, started in 2006 by the American University in Cairo’s Department of Political Science, is intended to serve as a forum for learning and dialogue within the AUC community and beyond. This quarterly seeks to publish theoretical, field and research driven studies which address a variety of issues within the scope of political science in particular, and the social sciences in general. Khamasin invites a variety of submission formats: articles and essays, monographs, book chapters, working papers, reviews, talks and conference papers, responses/rebuttals and commentaries. As well, interdisciplinary ventures which address, directly or indirectly, issues of political concern are welcome from all sectors of the social sciences and humanities.
